How to Appeal Your Property Tax Assessment in Nevada
The general appeal process in Nevada:
- Meet the deadline: All appeals to the County Board of Equalization, for both the secured and unsecured tax rolls, must be filed on or before January 15 of the assessment year. The County Board hears appeals from mid-January and must conclude business by the last day of February (NRS 361.340).
- File a appeal: Contact your county's County BOE or file online through your county's online portal.
- Gather evidence: Market analysis, recent comparable sales, and documentation of property defects or errors.
- Attend your hearing: Present your evidence to the County Board of Equalization.
- Escalate if needed: After the initial hearing, consider County Board of Equalization (County BOE) — appeal filed on or before January 15; board concludes business by the last day of February (NRS 361.357; NRS 361.340).
Evidence and Hearing Tips
Strong evidence for a Nevada property tax appeal typically includes comparable sales data, a recent licensed appraisal, and documentation of any property defects or errors in your assessment record.
Hearings are conducted by the County Board of Equalization (County BOE). Most appeals are resolved informally before a formal hearing.
